Cara is loving, devoted, happy & extraordinarily beautiful. I adopted her (June 6, 06) after losing my dog-companion of 11 yrs. Having fallen in love with her on our first meeting - I have tried to press through Cara's behavioral issues. She was so sweet, sedate, and well mannered during the 2 wk. trial that I named her Caramel Honey. It beats me how she knew when that trial period was up, but she became a terror the next day. Truth is, I would have kept her anyway, but my husband would not have agreed. She is about 15 months now. Her bad habits are leaping on me and all others. She throws her 55 - 60 lbs into her front feet that hit mid-stomach knocking the wind out of whoever is on the other end. That is a particular problem for the last 2 months because I have been gravely ill. She is also hyper, has running fits in the house and delights in continually tormenting the smaller pets (a Yorkie and 2 cats). A friend recently described her as "beautiful but awful." Help!!!!!!!!!

She is young and energetic. Much of this will pass with maturity, but that may take a while.
First of all, make sure she is getting enough exercise. A tired dog is a good dog!
Secondly, she needs some obedience training and to learn some self-control. She can't be jumping on people if she's holding a sit-stay.
